Be he right or be he wrong, there is no question that Donald Trump is a leader. He has supreme confidence in his ability to make things happen. And he is right more often than he is wrong ... which really angers his opponents. And very often these opponents would rather Trump lose than the United States win. This is a perverse type of political hostility. When President Trump moves in an unconventional direction with Afghanistan withdrawal or Iranian denuclearizing, fake-news pundits squirm and scream, “That is not the way to do it” ... forgetting that their previous mindless approaches were totally ineffective. What’s that definition of insanity?
I find it strange that liberals often find it preferable to do nothing administratively than be shown as having a hand on the throttle and a eye on the rail. I recall that many of my lefty friends called Mayor Rudy Giuliani a Nazi as he led New York City back to live-ability. And now the mayor of this city, de Blasio, would rather exercise at the gym than run his city ... with the result that it once again is a mess. This same insanity is being repeated in other Democrat cities ... Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, St. Louis, Portland, Chicago, etc., etc.
Why, in the minds of Democrats, does responsible management equate to totaliarism? And
laissez faire and permissiveness equal “justice?” There can be no real progress without making decisions and shaping operations. Yet they call themselves “progressives!” Railing against the phantom bugaboos of racism, bigotry, misogyny and antisemitism is not a substitute for leadership. And every so often the American people wake up and realize this truth.
